SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- A new peer-reviewed publication in the Journal of Managed Care Pharmacy (JMCP) demonstrates the impact of Sempre Health's innovative behavior-based medication adherence solution in significantly improving patients' consistent use of life-saving medications. Enrolling in Sempre Health's adherence and affordability program led to 18-20% higher medication adherence (dependent on drug class) compared with those not in the program, a meaningful step forward in addressing consistent medication usage challenges associated with chronic diseases.

Key Points: 
  • Sempre Health's program incorporates behavior-based incentives, timely refill reminders, and cost reductions for patients to improve medication affordability and adherence.
  • "The results of this study showing that individuals who used Sempre Health's innovative solution took their medications more often and required fewer ED visits are extremely encouraging.
  • "The statistically significant and higher multi-year medication adherence rates, coupled with a statistically significant reduction in emergency department visits, underscores the impact of Sempre's program.
  • We are not just improving adherence and accessibility of these life-saving drugs; we are positively influencing overall healthcare outcomes," said Anurati Mathur, CEO at Sempre Health.
